POLITICAL STRATEGY.

The Appointment of Mr.. Jas.
Monroe Trotter. as Depu'y Re-
corder of Deeds was one of the
first pieces of political strategy
ever witnessed in this country,
aid stamped Mr.. James G. Mat
thews as one of the most astute
politicians in this country. The
appointment of Mr.. Trotter by
Mr., MATHEWS as Deputy, forced
the august Sena e into eating the
largest dish of crow ever masticat-
ed by such fastidious set of gen
tlemen. The home rule expedi-
ment so successful in The Mat
thews case-did'nt work a cents
worth in the Trotter case.

THE sumptuous revival "The
Tanning of the Shrewn effected by
Mr.. DAILY has been found a potent
attraction at his threatre. 1t is
very well worthy it's popularity,
being accomplished with discretion,
liberality, and cOnsummate taste.
Miss Ada Rehan's acting in the
part OF Katherine is extremely hap
py. Indeed, it is in the nature of a
revelation, being quite out of the
way OF her usual work, and show
ing her In a more serious charac-
terizatiOn than those we are accus-
toned to see her undertake. Mr..
John Drew is a buOyant and vigor-
Gus Petruchio. The symmetrical
and balanced excellence of Mr..
Daly's company has seldom been
displayed to better advantage than
in this old comedy revival.-Tid
Bits.
The Washington bee., 1887-03-05

Even as a vote-catcher among
the colored people the Trotter ap
pointment is a failure. Colored sup.
porters of the President, like the
editor of the Bee, are recognizing
the farcical nature of the pretenSe
that the race issue is involved.
BY upholding carpet bag rule the
president alienates a large body
of democrats, and to Offset the loss
of their respect and Of that of the
people of the District he does not
seem likely to secure anything
more than the purchased gratitude
of the few strikers whom he i'm.
poses upon this District.-Evening
Star.
Our esteemed contemporary has
no doubt misunderstood our posi-
tion in regard to president Cleve-
land. We said that since the Mr.
matthews was rejected by the Sen
ate on the pretext of being a non
resident, the same objection would
be made against Trotter, and if a
District man was to be appointed
we favored Prof. j. M. Gregory. The
objection to Mr. matthews because
he is a non resident, is the same Oh
jection is made to MT. Trotter as we
expected it would be. But the
Senate has found out how the color
ored people really feel and feared
to meet the color issue so they con.
firmed Mr. Trotter. Hereafter both
parties will have a claim on the
colored vote.
We say if the Democratic platform
states that District men should be
to District offices, the
have nothing to do
with carrying out such doctraine,
if the democrats refused to adhear
to it. We are for suffrage, but not
such suffrage that benefits the
white man and operates against
the negro.
